I finished making my first blog book in late December. It arrived here on January 6, 2011.
The software I used to make the book was from blurb.com. My friend Jaclyn uses this website as well. I asked her for some help on how to use it. The book looks pretty good, but I realize that the front cover wasn't completely readable, because the colors I put on the title were to dark. It was only to dark, because of the picture I chose for the front. If I order another one of the same book I will have already changed the color, so that won't happen again.
Here is what the front of the book looks like.
Here are what some of the pages look like inside. I didn't take pictures of the back. It is just a white back. I could have put a picture there, but I wanted to save it for the next book.
I have another book already in progress, but I don't know when I will decide to end this one. Maybe December 2010 or after 2011 I'm not sure. It depends on how many pages it will take to make 2010. My first book has 78 pages.
If anyone wants me to make them a book of their own from their blog, I can do that. I can also make orders of my book for others too. I thought my in-laws might want one There are 3 types of books you can have paperback that has to be 80 pages minimum, hardback with sleeves, or just a hardback book which I chose to do. I don't think that the hardbacks have a specific number of pages you have to have. I waited to print my book from blurb so that I would get a good coupon. I got 15% off this time around.
I'm thinking about wiping out the posts that I have already put into a book. How does that sound to everyone?
